Finding the Perfect Balance in Outdoor Lighting Control
In the realm of home automation, the allure of controlling your home's features with a simple touch or voice command has never been more appealing. Yet, the journey towards fully automated homes has not been without its challenges. We recently encountered a scenario where a client, despite having an automated home, found themselves at a loss on how to operate their outdoor lighting—a stark reminder of the complexities that can accompany high-tech solutions.
The Evolution of Home Automation
A decade ago, the shift towards complete home automation was met with excitement. The prospect of controlling lamps or televisions from anywhere in the home—or even remotely—was enticing. However, this innovation also introduced new learning curves. Clients found themselves navigating through a series of commands on their smartphones just to perform simple tasks, leading some to yearn for the simplicity of the past.
Simplifying Outdoor Lighting with Photo Cell Technology
At Northwest Outdoor Lighting, we understand the value of simplicity. That's why we advocate for the use of photo cell technology in outdoor lighting systems. A photo cell automatically detects natural light, turning on your outdoor lights at dusk and off at sunrise, eliminating the need for manual switches, buttons, or apps. This solution has been a hit with our clients, who appreciate the effortless control over their outdoor illumination.

Mercer Island Mid-Century Residence
Upon moving from Capitol Hill to Mercer Island, the homeowners of this gorgeous home quickly found the towering trees and wooded areas very dark. This was particularly true of the Jacuzzi and outdoor deck, where the homeowners would often want to spend their time. Not only was there a lack of light, but there was also a lack of color.
